Molecular cloning and functional expression of delta 9-fatty acid desaturase from Antarctic Pseudomonas sp. A3 and Pseudomonas sp. A8

Fatty acid desaturase enzymes are capable of inserting double bonds between carbon atoms of saturated fatty acyl chains to produce unsaturated fatty acids. The enzymes are used by the Antarctic microorganisms to increase the amount of cellular unsaturated fatty acids, which maintain the proper membr...
